Re: libdaq configure error in cross compiling

[Steve Sturges <steve.sturges () sourcefire com>]

Looking through the config.log, I see the following, which indicate there
are some other library dependencies on libpcap.so.  So, you'll need to
figure out what library includes those symbols and include that so that
libpcap loads correctly when dynamically linked.

configure:11801: $? = 0
configure:11801: result: yes
configure:11801: checking for pcap.h
configure:11801: result: yes
configure:11809: checking for pcap_lib_version in -lpcap
configure:11834: arm-linux-gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -fvisibility=hidden -Wall
-Wwrite-strings -Wsign-compare -Wcast-align -Wextra -Wformat

Why Cloud-Based Security and Archiving Make Sense
Osterman Research conducted this study that outlines how and why cloud
computing security and archiving is rapidly being adopted across the IT 
space for its ease of implementation, lower cost, and increased 
reliability. Learn more. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51425301/
